When someone has already demonstrated they can do the work, what additional value do you think them getting a degree will bring to a company?

Sometimes the degree is needed in order for the company to be allowed to pay him over a specific amount/scale.
Any company that does this doesn’t seem worth working for
This happened to me once about a handful of years ago, and it happened because in spite of actually getting the job on technical merit, they were a funded NGO who's benefactors demanded at least an undergrad to work in the company. True story, it happens.
